font problems in text input

[Ole Jacob Taraldset]

I've had this problem since I started using Linux a few years ago, and have 
been unable to find a fix. This must be a problem for many people:
When I access a Java applett on web which requires text input the fonts in 
the input-box is to small (or large?) to bee shown. I've tried to hack the 
fonts.properties file, but without any success (It does get better though, 
but no were near useful). Go to the Norwegian page 
 (this applet 
calculates the tax you should pay for 2000)
for an example, but I'm having the same problem everywhere else. Look at the 
text input box after "Ditt fødselsår" for instance.

I'm using Red Hat 6.2 and 7.0 and have a running font server with Windows 
TT-fonts.

Can somebody please help me with this!!!

Regards,
Ole Jacob

Also Font problems ...

Hi all,

I just read Ole's post to this list and can say that I've got the same 
problem... (you can check https://banking.apobank.de .. just enter some 
numbers there)
I get this problem with
o Caldera (Technologie Preview)
o Mandrake (7.1 and 8.0)
o SuSE 6.3 and 7.0
and _any_ browser or JRE (tried Konqueror, Netscape 4.xx, 6.xx,
Mozilla M18, 0.6, Opera with the Blackdown JRE as well as Sun's
and IBM's). So the thing more and more comes out to be somewhat
wierd ...

It'd be great if somebody would have a solution for this.
Regards, Raphael

Ok , I can't really wait for that to come out :(  Any tips on using maybe JNI 
to set that sockopt? (SO_REUSEADDR)

This is a bug in the applet code.
Contact the site adminstrators and tell them their programmers should
use a proper layout manager instead of absolute positions and sizes.

Again, it's a bug in the applet.
